Thank you cards

Since I didn't get to go to the lake as planned this weekend, I had some time to craft. All the laundry, dishes & house was all clean, so I didn't have to do anything else. I didn't even have to make dinner since we have all the food we were going to eat on the boat. Free time for me!!

I have been wanting to use the Preserves cartridge for some time now so I decided to make some "thank you" cards with them.

I am entering these in the scrappymoms-stamps Terrific Tuesday Challenge - Preserves
and
Sumply Sunday "Food for thought" at gettingcricky with KAndrews





A2 size cards
Preserves cricut cartridge cut at 3.75"
Solid paper from stash
Gingham paper from DCWV "Nanas Kitchen Stack"
Buttons from Oriental trading co.
Grosgrain blue ribbon
White gel pen
"thanks so much" stamp from PTI  "mega mixed messages" set
"Swiss dots" cuttlebug folder
